and as i say that we score

[raznomore]

englands backs are midgets too

[Nepia]

@raznomore Johnson looks like he's playing for a contract too.

[Nepia]

Rugby League Wayne Barnes is reffing this game.

[Nepia]

WTF! The stitch up from the hometown refs is on.

[akan004]

Hometown decision.

[raznomore]

the ref is actually an idiot. completely the wrong temperament for officiating. would be more at home in a kindy or minding sheep.

DWZ had nothing to do with Johnson stopping that try. Remove DWZ from that play and Johnson still stops it.

They also got away with a blatant knock on in front of the ref and touch judge a few minutes earlier.

[akan004]

@nepia Yeah, has to be one of the worst calls I have seen. He was so desperate to award them the try.

[Nepia]

And Halligan confirms that he's a commentator by saying he thought it was a try - not a penalty try, but that England scored it.

[raznomore]

I understand it when they playing a stadium set up for soccer but there are playing on a field that has the length, why have such ridiculously small in goal area.

[raznomore]

need smith back on asap

He looked pretty average when he was on TBF. Nikorima seemed to be playing half half/half 9 for the first 30 odd minutes.

But agree, need to bring him back on, and tell him to go for broke.

[Nepia]

The Kiwis have fallen to pieces.

[Nepia]

Wow, England just got a penalty after Tomkins pulled Johnson back into the ruck when he was basically out of the way.

This is bullshit. This match makes O'Keefe's performance in the Magpies v Otago match look fair and balanced.

[akan004]

Another English knock on missed. Fuck.

[Nepia]

There were too many dodgy decisions in that match.

What a crock of shit.

I would like to put forward an entry for "least thought-out sports article of 2018" ladies and gentlemen, i give you this nuffie and his pass/fail for each club/coach in 2019.

Oct 31, 2018

Nail it or fail again? The pass mark for each NRL club and their coaches in 2019

Finals or bust, avoid the wooden spoon: The pass mark for each NRL club in 2019

Apparently, just to get a pass mark, no fewer than 7 coaches need to get their team in to the top 4. And if 13 or 14 teams don't make the 8, then the coach might get sacked.

This nuffie has effectively taken last year's ladder, and said do this again, or better, or you're gone. Fuck maths, schedule, or roster. Do these dickheads get paid for this shit?

Kiwis try to even the series vs the Poms, 3.30am NZT?

England: John Bateman, George Burgess, Tom Burgess, Daryl Clark, Jake Connor, Oliver Gildart, James Graham (c), Chris Hill, Josh Hodgson, Jonny Lomax, Tommy Makinson, Jermaine McGillvary, Richie Myler, Adam Milner, Mark Percival, Luke Thompson, Sam Tomkins, Elliott Whitehead, George Williams (two to be omitted).

If they get good Adam Blair back, he will be a strong addition

[Virgil]

That went well...
